TTC - Symptoms 2WW

Hi everyone we’ve been TTC for 7 months now (8 months this month), had a chemical MC in June and wondered if anyone was in their 2WW and we could share symptoms etc.

we’ve tracked our fertile days this month using strip and digital ovulation tests and made sure we did the deed 7 times in 8 days around the time. Now 3DPO feeling dull cramps, fatigue, headaches, slightly full/tender breasts and cervix is low but very soft. Anyone in their 2 week wait? I feel like it’s never going to happen and thought may help get through with someone else to share with ❤️❤️

@Mumsy88 well it’s likely that you may of ovulated on 05/09 which makes you 9dpo today, have you taken a test today?

@Chloe2599 Im with you on the energy front, I feel so bleugh! Still positive signs though🤞🏼I’ve had twinges and cramps but could literally be anything, I’ve had weird symptoms this whole cycle so could really go either way for me, I’m rooting for you all to get your BFPs!

Mumsy88 · 14/09/2023 20:40

@HappyWelsh so confusing isn't it. I havent tested again. Going to try hold out for couple days, famous last words. Defiantly think the IC was false now though. Xx

Mumsy88 · 14/09/2023 20:42

Also do any of you get your aches/pains and twinges later at night when relaxing. Xxx

Chloe2599 · 14/09/2023 21:04

I’ve felt absolutely pants this afternoon and still now. I’ve had a banging headache had 2 lots of paracetamol which didn’t shift it. Had a few lighting bolt type cramps in my bits and a really dull ache on one side. Very short tempered but think that’s because I feel a little agitated. I’ve also come out with lots more spots on my chin and jawline.

im starting to feel itchy to do a test but I know it’s too early yet 😬😬😬😬😬

@Chloe2599 Hope your feeling better this morning. Fingers crossed the lightning bolt and aches are implantation.

I got bfn this morning, definitely losing hope now.

How's everyone else doing? Xx

Chloe2599 · 15/09/2023 07:37

Thank you, had a bad night sleep had a few bad dreams and couldn’t get back to sleep.

I think I’m going to pick some up today but try wait until tomorrow morning (9dpo) and do on first wee in morning. Aww sorry to hear you got a BFN how many dpo are you again? Xx

@Chloe2599 I can vouch for the mood swings, I’m about to go into a meeting and have my arse handed to me, and it’s been on my mind all week, so not sure if that is why I’m irritable.

I went to the gym this morning and it triggered some light cramps (I didn’t do much), not feeling too hopeful as massive temp drop this morning. Still feel a bit sicky though. My eyesight is off and feel slightly dizzy, Not sure if that is a thing?

@Mumsy88 you’re definitely not out yet! I also feel the twinges in the night time too! How are you feeling today?

Mumsy88 · 15/09/2023 10:15

@Chloe2599 I'm due my period today, but had 3days of positive opks 2nd 3rd 4th Sept. So could be 14dpo or 11dpo. Think the MC last cycle may have buggered my body up. Dizzy spells can be a symptom, I had that last cycle but also this cycle. I feel like af and pg symptoms r so similar 😬

@HappyWelsh woke up with headache and achy. But no definite period pains yet! Cervix still high considering due on, but mine changes position throughout day.

You know when you just have that feeling not your month.
Xx

HappyWelsh · 15/09/2023 10:34

@Mumsy88 Yes, I’m prone to dizzy spells with fluctuations of hormones, I’m 8dpo according to the app, it says I ovulated on 7th, but I woke up with terrible cramps and ovulation pain on the 9th, so I think I could be anywhere from 6dpo - 8dpo🤷🏻‍♀️

Im on cycle day 68! I came of BC in May, my body has tired to ovulate twice in the cycle but I know for certain the recent one was successful🙏🏼

Chloe2599 · 15/09/2023 14:34

OH caved and paid for a private blood test yesterday but it’s come back 1hcg which is negative. I think it was too early as I only had cramps and lightening feeling yesterday (6/7dpo) going into last night so I’m not out yet but feeling much better today just tired because of bad dreams. Even though I know it’s early it’s still hard to not feel disheartened isn’t it xx

just had my facial try to combat the horrible chin/jawline breakouts

let’s hope AF doesn’t come @Mumsy88

@HappyWelsh we are about the same time arent we. App said 7th then because I logged cramps and ewcm on 8th it changed so I think I’m 7dpo today.

im going to try test Sunday with FR

@HappyWelsh wish it was easy just to say yes or no! Our bodies are so confusing!

@Chloe2599 Wow you manged a blood test that quickly. Wouldn't even know where to go for that around my area or if they would. Your still very early. Fingers crossed next few days you will get your bfp. Hope you enjoyed your facial and relaxed.

Xxx

Chloe2599 · 15/09/2023 15:27

Paid for a private one

feeling deflated wish I hadn’t bothered now xx

Very early days hun, keep positive. Easier said then done I know.

Xx

Mumsy88 · 16/09/2023 09:15

Morning

How are all?

I've started spotting this morning 😔 and symptoms are zero. To top it off my sister in law has gone into labor. Very happy for her as her rainbow baby and her 1st. But can't help feeling little down.

Xx

capetownclaire · 16/09/2023 09:33

@Mumsy88 sending you lots of love! I have a feeling mine will start soon. Have some mild cramping that I think is more in line with my period 😢 took a cheap test this morning and was a BFN. Didn't realise this process would be so difficult and all consuming!

Mumsy88 · 16/09/2023 09:36

@capetownclaire thank you. Oh no hoe many dpo are you again?

I've actually ordered a basal thermometer for next cycle. Give it ago. Xx

capetownclaire · 16/09/2023 09:38

@Mumsy88 12DPO. which one did you get? I never know if they're worth spending the money or not!

HappyWelsh · 16/09/2023 09:54

@Chloe2599 I honestly feel like I’ve ovulated last Friday night/early hours of Saturday morning. I think it would of been way to early for a blood test to pick any thing up so please stay positive, you may not have implanted at that stage, I took a IC this morning and it’s neg, but if I’m actually only 8dpo it would definitely be too soon. Do you track ovulation using OPKs? I highly recommend the premom app and tests.

@Mumsy88 its so disheartening isn’t it? The worst for me is atm my cycles are 70 days long so I have to wait so long just to even try, I’m hoping next month is shorter as I feel like I’m out, my hormonal symptoms has eased off😒 I’m going to order the premom thermometer for next month.

Mumsy88 · 16/09/2023 09:55

@capetownclaire still have time lovely.

I've gone for the femometer one, 8.99 on amazon. It comes rated on forums. Xx

Mumsy88 · 16/09/2023 09:58

@HappyWelsh it really is but only cycle 3 for me so I can't be to disheartened when others wait months and years. 8dpo very early for bfp some are lucky but personally I've only ever got bfps between 14dpo and 17dpo with all my pregnancies.

Xx

Chloe2599 · 16/09/2023 11:03

Yeah suppose!! We’ve been tracking using opks yes. Hang in there girls your not out until your out keep positive

I’m 8/9dpo today. Going to do a FR in the morning although not really any symptoms anymore xxx

Chloe2599 · 16/09/2023 15:56

Hold that thought. I’ve had some shooting/achey pains in my breasts for the last 2/3 hours and noticed they feel full ( not sore) but have gone really veiny!!! Anyone had this?

@Chloe2599 You did a blood test BEFORE or ON implantation. Of course it was going to be negative!
It takes 5 days for the fertilised egg to reach blastocyst phase, and only after that will it implant. So implantation usually happens at around day 7dpo! And only one or two days after that will the body start producing hCG.

There is a definite line on that test, but did it come up within the alloted time frame?
I would test again tomorrow with FMU to confirm.

Chloe2599 · 16/09/2023 16:56

I know OH booked it while he was at work and didn’t realise was way too early.

that line was 2 minutes into the 3 minute timeline x
